There’s something about The Ashes that sets it apart. From an even standpoint, it is just two teams locking horns in a Test series. But what makes The Ashes stand apart is the raw emotion behind the series. The drama, the rivalry, the sheer competitiveness of both teams wanting that urn so bad. For more than a century now, The Ashes promises to be one of the most glorious Test series in the cricketing world. We are once again at the foothill of an exciting Ashes 2025 series as the English team will be on the flight to Australia later this year.

But the point of discussion here is whether Australia produce better cricketers than England. Though the answer to this question might be a point of rigorous debate, it doesn’t seem to be a difficult question for one Australian legend.

Ricky Ponting, former captain, has presented a detailed view on whether Australia produce better cricketers than England. He spoke about the Australian domestic cricket system and went on to emphasise what builds character among the players. Moreover, he mentioned the tough nature of club cricket in Australia. If a player succeeds through all those rigorous rounds of domestic cricket, he is expected to be good in terms of the skill set in which he thrives.

Ricky Ponting Lauds The Domestic System in Australia Ahead of The Ashes 2025

The Australian legend explained how difficult it is to get into the state side in the Australian circuit because they have fewer teams as compared to the County Championship in England. This, in a way, brings out more competition among the teams in the league. Ponting feels this plays a huge role in the leagues in Australia being better than the County Championships. Before a player gets a chance to play international cricket, he has to go through a lot of hardships in the domestic circuit.

Ponting also spoke about what a team requires to win Test matches in Australia. He mentioned that there were moments in the past when English batters have averaged around 21 on Australian soil. He went on to state that it is not how a team can win Test matches and a series in Australia. It is extremely important for a team to focus on the basics of the game to be able to win matches. Ponting also mentioned that the way England are adopting the Bazball approach, it would be interesting to watch how they perform Down Under.

Sheffield Shield vs The County Championship

The Sheffield Shield is a domestic tournament in Australia, which is played between six teams representing each State. The competition is contested in a double, round-robin format, wherein each team plays the other twice. New South Wales, Tasmania, Western Australia, Queensland, South Australia, and Victoria are the six teams which participate in the tournament. The tournament has proven to be an important milestone in the careers of players who have gone on to achieve great milestones for the island continent.

On the other hand, the County Championship is a First-class tournament hosted by the England & Wales Cricket Board. As a matter of fact, the County Championship is the first domestic cricket tournament in the world. Unlike the Sheffield Shield, in which just six teams participate, the County Championship is contested between 18 teams. Surrey are the current champions of the championship. Yorkshire hold the record for the maximum titles, 32, along with a shared title in 1949.
